Potassium Iodide and Nuclear Fears

Taking potassium iodide to prevent thyroid cancer AFTER being exposed to radiation is a must, however it is not suitable as a long term supplement (over a month). In fact kitties, its it more dangerous and not generally available in the UK in its clinical form. However, nature always comes to the rescue and seas vegetables like seaweed, kombu, kelp, wakame, and arame are naturally high in iodine and as far as we know won’t kill off your thyroid 🙂

So keep that bottle of potassium iodide for if you do get exposed to a higher than normal level of radiation and eat your sea greens for general good health. Supposed to keep you thin also…
